The Emily Hotel

N/A

The hotel was very loud. Guests were loud walking down the hallway at 2 am and again around 2:30 am. A very drunk guest woke me up before 5 am and was arguing with a staff member. I ended up only getting 3 hours of sleep so have been a zombie all day. We were in town for our daughter's engagement and will find a quieter venue the next time we stay in the city.

location: excellent; breakfast menu: average; staff: very responsive

The fitness studio was excellent. I could do my workouts each day.

This was our first Christmas trip to Chicago and we needed to find a hotel that was close to where our kids live. The Emily fit the bill perfectly! The location in the West Loop/Fulton Market was really fun - lots of restaurants, bars and shopping are very close by. The hotel is lovely and the room - a deluxe king - was very nice. I did find the bed to be a bit too firm for my liking and had a dickens of a time trying to get the room cool enough for a good night's sleep. Despite those two hiccups, I would still recommend this lovely hotel to all travelers coming to the West Loop/Fulton Market area.

It was an amazing stay the room was spacious but still felt cozy at the same time. The only downside was that there wasn’t a fridge or a microwave in the room, which I didn’t love. Other than that, everything was great. They even provided a complimentary umbrella and a robe, which was a really nice touch. The bathroom, though, was hands down my favorite part I absolutely loved it.

We stayed here for my wife’s birthday and had an amazing experience. Frankie took great care of us he was welcoming, attentive, and really went above and beyond. The hotel vibe is awesome, the room was outstanding, and everything was spotless. The location is super walkable to lots of great spots, and valet was fast and friendly. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in town and hopefully stay longer to enjoy even more of what the hotel has to offer.

Perfect location and a very stylish room made our stay so enjoyable! Their outstanding front desk and housekeeping staff helped retrieve my fiancé’s engagement ring that we accidentally left behind when we checked out of The Emily. We are so thankful and will always stay at the Emily Hotel. Thank You so much!

Hotel is modern and the rooms have minimalist feel to them. Bed was great and the room size was fine for two people. No drawers, which i missed, but good closet and a wall system w some hooks on it that was helpful. Staff was also helpful and nice. Lobby bar and 7th floor bar were both enjoyable. Definitely don’t miss a trip to the 7th floor especially if weather is good. It’s a bit out of downtown so we used Uber to get around. Guinness brewery and Rose Mary are great walkable choices.

The room was EXTREMELY clean and quiet.

Inadequate bathroom ventilation. Bed sits too low. When it was discovered that our reservation was booked with parking, that we did not need, the front desk advisor made zero effort to rectify that. We will not stay here again.

Wonderful location, walkable to lots of restaurants and things to do. The room felt modern yet functional. They provided us with a crib and baby soap which we thought was a nice touch for those traveling with a baby!

I needed to extend my stay in Chicago for two days because my boyfriend was in the hospital and The Emily Hotel took us in. Do book early, because the last minute bookings are pricey, at least around Thanksgiving.

The lobby at the Emily is light and airy and has a great coffee shop. The Fora restaurant there serves great food and the staff were very attentive and kind. Even though I was just waiting for an order, they seated me, brought me a small pitcher of water, and made me feel welcome.

The front desk staff were friendly, efficient, and courteous. When I asked for some changes they cheerfully went out of their way to help -- they showed a great deal of kindness throughout my stay.

The rooms are minimalist but have everything you need, and have a kind of open charm. I liked that the sink was outside the bathroom. It makes it easy for two people to get dressed or ready for bed. The rooms overlooking the next building could use a layer of sheers inside the curtains, but privacy was not a problem.

I liked The Emily very much. It is simple and imaginative, very comfortable, and suffused with kindness.

Nice hotel in the center of the West Loop. Between the hotel and the area if you’re bored it’s your fault. Nice bar and restaurant. Clean comfortable rooms. I’d definitely go back for a staycation or business trip.
